Brexit, Parliament and the Constitution

The Fellowship will comprise two main elements: first, working alongside the UKICE team to facilitate events and commentary on key constitutional topics surrounding Brexit, and second, detailed research and publications on Brexit and parliament. The research part of the project is anticipated as having three strands:

First, the relationship and tensions between principles of direct and representative democracy in the UK constitution.

Second, the extent and shape of parliament’s influence over the Brexit process.

Third, what the Brexit process has told us about the need for possible future parliamentary reforms.
